Hypothetical poll. This is regarding to the original Dragon Ball Anime\ Manga. i tried to have a complete list, but to drift somewhat from absolutely minor characters and alternate outfits etc

To be completely honest, I don't think I would buy any DB Figuarts figures, but I do like this poll, so I voted.
I'd much rather own less articulated 5 inch scale figures of everybody above. I pretty much voted for all of the first 10 characters - Bear Thief + Lunch. I'd want the characters from the first few episodes before anything else.
It drives me crazy that Irwin, Bandai, Banpresto, etc. all go in completely random orders of releasing figures. I'd want them to go chronologically. First episode to last.
I would much rather hope that Figuarts figures will remain DBZ only and not DB or DBGT. I'd rather have a kid Gohan from Saiyan Saga than a kid Goku from the entire first half of DB.

I agree. The smart move for Bandai is to stay with the DBZ characters for now. If the line does progress further than I wouldn't mind seeing spin offs for the original series and GT.

Know what I wish were made? DB Real Works figures. I'd be very satisfied having non-articulated DB characters at that size and quality. And that way, they could produce characters I'd really like to own, but wouldn't want to pay extra for just because they are articulated. What characters am I talking about...? The fat girl Goku brings back for Roshi, the mermaid Goku brings back, Boss Rabbit's gang, and all of the Red Ribbon generals/colonels. That reminds me, you're missing Boss Rabbit from the poll and he's one of my favorite DB characters . I'd actually buy a Figuarts figure of him!

I think if we were to get DB characters it would be better to come from the earlier sagas. We could always get the later ones as part of the DBZ Saiyan Saga.

I voted for the larger characters as I believe they could be inserted into a 5 inch scale collection. Dreamin'....

Tien, Yamcha, Krillin and Chaiotzu from the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai would look pretty much the same as early DBZ sagas. My DB wish list: -2-Pack w/ Kid Goku & Kid Krillin (21st Tenkaichi Budokai or original training clothes) -Turtle Hermit Roshi w/ Turtle -Desert bandit Yamcha w/Puar -Early Bulma -King Piccolo (after regaining youth) w/ alternate egg spitting head -Tien & Chiaotzu (in Crane Hermit clothes) -Mercenary Tao w/ alternate robotic head/hands

Tien and Yamcha from the 23nd Tenkaichi are identical to their appearance in the Saiyan saga, but krillin artwork and outfit are different, and Chiaotzu from the primaries have a different outfit from the Saiyan saga altogether.
I voted for the larger characters for same reason, but for HG scale.
Bear Thief Bacterian Giran Major Metallitron Buyon
23nd Tenkaichi Tien - or from the 22nd Tenkaichi, with blue pants and four arms that would be cool. 23nd Tenkaichi Yamcha 23nd Tenkaichi Goku Kid Goku - they can give him a stand with Nimbus, and the Power Pole with an extend effect. King Piccolo

I had mostly the same choices, M5.
Yamcha and Tien had minor differences from the 23rd Tourney and Saiyan Saga though. Yamcha had a pony tail and Tien had a yellow shirt (to begin) the 23rd WT. I always liked that outfit.

Also, you did a really good job on this, but I think I will also likely include only the top choices in a new poll after SDCC. As much as I would heavily want an Oolong made if other DB characters were made, I don't think they would make him highly articulated or as a figure by himself. I think they would be more likely to include him as an accessory with someone else, like Bulma. So I think I will pair smaller characters up into being accessories with other characters.

What's the difference between 23rd Budokai ChiChi and ChiChi, and 23rd Budokai Tien, and Tien? I voted for both, so I don't split the vote! Are they open to doing such minor characters? It's awesome if they are, but I don't think they'd sell that many to justify the production costs.

I was told that minor characters are unlikely. I don't unfortunately see them making Chi Chi for any saga :/. If they do, I would assume she'd be the young version.
For DB, Tien remains the same pretty much throughout other than a change of pants color, so on the new poll he'll only appear one time like that. I will likely lump him into "DB/early DBZ shirtless Tien" as a choice. I would prefer they make this version personally, and then either include a piece to add his Cell saga green sash, or just leave that up to customizers. I can include "Cell saga Tien with green one shoulder wrap" as an option though... it would suck if they made only one Tien and he wasn't more buff than Goku and others.
